Apologies for the unplanned delay in the despatch of tax discs from DVLA. There was a production issue that delayed the despatch of tax discs on Monday 3rd and Tuesday 4th March.

I can confirm the details of the despatch as follows:

Friday and Saturday registrations – majority of tax discs were despatched on Monday and the remainder despatched on Tuesday.

Monday registrations – majority of tax discs were despatched on Tuesday and the remainder despatched on Wednesday.

There are no issues with distribution for Tuesday and Wednesday registrations.

The AFRL Web page http://extranet.dft.gov.uk/dvla-afrl was updated on 4th March to notify your dealers of a delay in delivery of tax discs based on information available at that time. We will be updating again today to reflect current status.

The Agency acknowledges that this is one of your busiest periods and apologises for the delays in delivery of the tax discs.
